<p>Believe it or not, Christmas time is here! As we move closer and closer to Christmas Day and the celebration of God 
sending Jesus to rescue us, we have so much to celebrate together as a faith family. God has been so gracious to us this 
year and especially over the last few months as we took significant steps of faith in the ONE Initiative.</p>

<p>We shared on Sunday that to-date, over 125 families have made commitments to ONE totaling over 2.04 million dollars! 
People are still turning in commitments and many have already begun giving their expanded gifts. The giving phase began 
this past Sunday and let me tell you, we are off to a GREAT start! I'm so grateful for your generosity and faithfulness 
to the vision and mission God has given us.</p>

<p>If you have not made a commitment, you can still do so online by clicking <a href="<?= wufoo('z1kczgu900qihhh') ?>" 
target="wufoo">here</a> or by turning in a commitment card in at a Sunday service or to the church office during the 
week.</p> 

<p>There are two additional significant opportunities for you and your family this Christmas season: Operation WInter 
Warmth and Christmas Eve at North Rock Hill. Please see the details for both below.</p> 

<p>All of this…giving sacrificially, providing for those in need, and celebrating Jesus on Christmas Eve are all in 
response to what God has done for us in Christ - He gave His Son to rescue us from our sin and to give us new life. We 
have a story to share and a Savior to celebrate!  See you Sunday!</p>

<p>Until All Hear,<br> Jay</p>
